A teenage girl on Friday was brought before an Ebute Meta Chief Magistrates’ Court in Lagos over alleged murder.
The 16-year-old appeared before the Chief Magistrate, Mrs A. O. Adedayo, on a two-count charge of conspiracy and murder.
The Magistrate who refused to take the plea of the accused ordered that the teenager be remanded at the Special Correctional Centre for Girls, Idi-Araba, Mushin, Lagos.
Adedayo directed that the case file should be sent to the State Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for advice.
Police Prosecutor, Chinalu Uwadione told the court that the 16-year-old committed the offences on Aug. 7 at Cele Bus Stop, Ijanikin, on the Lagos-Badagry Expressway.
He alleged that the accused shot one Abraham Umaru, in the head.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, the offences contravened Sections 223 and 233 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2015 which stipulates a death sentence for offenders.
The Magistrate, therefore, adjourned the case until Sept. 5 for the DPP’s advice.
